Alken-Ziegler is the largest privately held cold forming company in the United States. We are a multifaceted company that offers parts forming, precision machining and tool & die services to a wide variety of customers in the Americas, Europe and Asia. We are also a three-time recipient of the General Motors Supplier of the Year award.

Since 1969, Alken-Ziegler has been a leader in the manufacture of high quality cold formed and machined parts. The company now maintains two locations, one in Taylor, MI and the other in Kettering, OH. Corporate headquarters is located at our automotive OEM manufacturing campus in Taylor. This facility is the center of our forming and secondary machining operations.

For many years the automotive OEM and Tier 1 companies have depended upon independent screw machine companies to supply complex parts. In many cases screw machining came at a higher cost because of large amounts of material waste. This translated into higher prices. Cold forming offered an attractive solution.

The cold forming process provides a more efficient use of raw materials by moving the metal into its final form with little or no waste. Parts produced by cold forming also possess superior mechanical properties, achieved by cold working the metal as it is being formed. If precision toler ances are required, they can be achieved with minimal secondary machining.

CAPABILITIES:

• Cold and Warm Forming Operations

. 1/8" to 2" diameter cut-off size range
. Hydraulic and mechanical presses for short runs and specialty parts
. Over 40 cold forming machines, most in the 1" and larger size range

Teamwork is the key ingredient in the "Beneke attitude", everyone working for a common goal, the success of the customer, plus a shared pride in the quality of their work and the quality of the end product.

COMPANY HISTORY:

Over forty years ago, Chuck Beneke had a vision. He believed there was a strong demand for high-quality, custom-produced aluminum wire. He was certain customers would respond to the idea of aluminum wire manufactured to fit their specific requirements. He was right. In 1968 this wire industry pioneer joined with his son J. David Beneke and founded Beneke Wire Company.

Beneke Wire Company started producing small orders of extremely high-quality aluminum wire. Great attention was paid to the alloy, the finish and the rigid tolerances. More importantly, the company worked to produce wire that would improve their customer's production process.By creating the right treatment or finish, Beneke Wire customers could possibly eliminate certain steps in their manufacturing, thus making a better end product at reduced production costs.This "partnership" between the Beneke engineering staff and the customer is a key ingredient to the success of the entire operation.

David Beneke succeeded his father as president of the company in 1983 and he has continued to emphasize the traditions of value and service that has helped Beneke Wire grow into a world leader in aluminum wire production.

TODAY AND THE FUTURE:

The next generation of the Beneke family is actively working within the corporation. Michael and Stephen Beneke are now part of the executive management team, working to assure continuity within the company for years to come. The same core values established by Chuck Beneke forty plus years ago have been passed on to this new, successful team of company management.

Beneke Wire Company continues to grow. With more than 200,000 square feet of manufacturing space, Beneke provides aluminum wire to its customers worldwide.

PRODUCTS:

Beneke Wire Company offers the most complete range of aluminum wire products on the market to an international customer base.

In 1985, Nucor decided to open a fastener facility, expanding the company into other steel-related products. Rather than acquire an existing plant, Nucor decided to build a state-of-the-art manufacturing operation in St. Joe, IN. Many people were skeptical. At the time, low-priced imports were driving domestic manufacturers from the business.North American manufacturers had lost about 80 percent of the standard bolt and nut markets. But company leaders wanted to start with a clean slate and do things the Nucor way, focusing on longstanding principles of quality, integrity and customer service.

Today, Nucor Fastener is a domestic leader in fastener production, manufacturing highquality domestic standard fasteners, as well as special items made to individual customer specifications. We also add value to our standard product line through special finishes, patches, adhesives and other secondary processing. But that's just part of our story.As part of Nucor, we strive for continuous improvement. We have increased capacity to process wire, heat treat, form and warehouse.We're committed to further improvement and expansion. Our goal: continue finding new ways to get our customers what they need, when they need it.

QUALITY ASSURANCE:

The Nucor name is synonymous with quality and stability. We maintain the integrity of our steel through an advanced tracking system that starts with the raw material coils and continues all the way through warehousing and shipping. Since our dedicated steel source is Nucor Nebraska, we know our steel's history even before it arrives here.We control the manufacturing process, including wire processing (annealing/pickling), forming, heat treat, inspection, packaging and warehousing. Even after the fasteners are shipped, our system allows customers to acquire a full history of the steel.

Our products are quality-tested throughout the manufacturing process and then again at final inspection prior to shipment to assure you of our commitment to high quality products. Certifications and material test reports are available on raw material,outside processing and finished products.Our quality registrations include ISO/TS 16949:2002, ISO 9001:2000 and A2LA.We're also certified to ISO 14001 environmental standards.

PRODUCT LINE:

At Nucor Fastener, our capability ranges from 1/4" (M6) diameter through 1-1/4" (M30), in lengths up to 10" (250mm). Our production takes place almost entirely within our 500,000-square-foot facility.Our large number of bolt makers provides capacity to meet customer needs and provide redundancy across all sizes. In fact, when it comes to producing bolt diameters 3/4" (M20) and larger, we have one of the world's largest capacities.

We continue to manufacture high-quality hex head cap screws, finished hex nuts, structural bolts, nuts, assemblies and flange bolts. But we've also expanded our product line to include build-to-print fasteners. Head styles, dimensions, grades and finishes can be customized to meet individual specifications.And through strategic alliances with processors, we're able to accommodate special finishes, patches, adhesives and other secondary processing requirements to help you streamline your supply chain.

No matter what your needs are, you can trust Nucor Fastener to get you the right products to get the job done. During construction of the Cooper River Bridge in South Carolina, for example, about one million mechanically galvanized bolts and nuts - primarily 7/8" and 1" diameters - were used to support North America's largest cable stay span bridge. Nucor fasteners have also been used in other high-profile projects, such as the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and stadiums for the Pittsburgh Steelers, Cleveland Browns and Indiana Pacers.

Rotor Clip makes all of its retaining rings, wave springs and hose clamp products in a 280,000 square foot manufacturing space on 64 acres in Somerset, New Jersey. This vertically integrated concept is one that many manufacturers have abandoned over the years in exchange for cheaper-running plants in foreign countries. But by performing all of the critical steps in producing retaining rings in-house (like die design/building, stamping, wire forming, heat treating and finishing), Rotor Clip is able to provide customers with quality, repeatable products they can rely on to consistently perform in the most critical applications.

Another advantage is the wealth of knowledge Rotor Clip employees have gained in these critical areas. Engineers, toolmakers, machine operators and quality inspectors have worked together to solve problems and initiate improvements. By not exporting critical technology to outside sources, these key personnel have gained a wealth of knowledge they can share with their customers to help them select the most effective and economical retaining ring for their application.

Although enthusiastically committed to American manufacturing, Rotor Clip is still every bit a global company, selling product into major automotive and distributor markets in Europe, Asia, South America and Australia.

PRODUCT LINE:

Rotor Clip is the only manufacturer in the world offering all three major types of retaining rings: tapered, constant section and spiral. These are made to inch, DIN, ANSI metric and JIS standards in carbon steel, stainless steel and beryllium copper.

Unlike other companies we don't claim one retaining ring is better than another. Rather, it's about your application and what you need to make it work.With the help of Rotor Clip engineers, you'll find the one retaining ring that works best for you, rather than the one that's best for us to sell you.

Rotor Clip military retaining rings are also available, manufactured to military specifications under Cage Code 07382.

Stainless steel parts for military need to be made from PH15-7 stainless material, which Rotor Clip can provide.This material is not readily available in Europe and the Pacific Rim, limiting the ability of other sources to provide certified rings to their customers.

MS parts made from High Carbon Spring Steel are also available; manufactured domestically, and processed from Rotor Clip's extensive catalog of tooled parts. Finishes include: Cadmium; Zinc Dichromate, and Phosphate.

Stainless steel and beryllium copper parts have been certified as domestically melted by raw material suppliers for purposes of DFARS 252.225-7014, "Preference for domestic specialty metals." Certifications are provided Free of Charge.

Rotor Clip also offers single turn, multi turn, and nested wave springs.A wave spring is made from coiled flat wire with waves added to give it a spring effect. Wave springs are superior to coil springs in certain applications because they provide lower work heights with the same force. This not only provides for space savings, but also smaller assemblies that use less materials, hence lower production costs.

THE GREEN FASTENER:

Using Rotor Clip retaining rings in place of threaded fasteners where appropriate reduces scrap and hazardous waste caused by machining shoulders and use of excess cutting fluids. Our wave springs provide lower work heights than coil springs with the same force - resulting in smaller assemblies that use less material. Rotor Clip products can be produced to meet the requirements of the RoHS and ELV directives.

QUALITY:

With all the recent news stories concerning quality mistakes from overseas as well as in the States, Rotor Clip is dedicated to providing customers with a part that exceeds standard specifications. This includes providing documentation showing critical quality, material & heat treating specs, as well as lot traceability and country of origin.All Rotor Clip products are designed & manufactured in the USA in one facility, registered to ISO/TS 16949:2009.

SERVICE:

Rotor Clip is not just a manufacturing facility. It is a support center for customers from the moment of contact.Whether it's placing an order, needing design assistance, or finding the right part, Rotor Clip is there to help throughout the business relationship.

The Rotor Express program provides customers with small package quantities of retaining rings that would otherwise be too costly to process from Rotor Clip's facility. Through a series of partnerships throughout the country, customers can purchase low-volumes of product at extremely competitive prices.

S&M Retaining Rings became a division of Schneider & Marquard in January of 2001 as a result of the vision of the current owner Michael J.

Joseph Volltrauer founded Volt Industrial Plastics, Inc., June 1, 1992, but Volt's roots go back further then 18 years. They really go back to 1958 when Joe got a job as a apprentice tool and die maker for Acme Tool & Die in Chicago. In 1973 he stared his own company, JV Tool, and a couple of years later moved to Arkansas where he designed his exceptionally functional, high quality molds for manufacturers of plastic components. JV Tool was a problem solver, a quality improver, a cost saver.

In 1992 Joe decided he could use all of his mold and tool making expertise to efficiently produce quality plastic fasteners in his own company and he founded Volt Industrial Plastics, Inc. He infused the entire company with his uncompromising dedication to quality and service and shared his knowledge of mold making.

PRODUCTS:

Volt offers a wide range of plastic fasteners in over 120 different materials. They keep 500 million pieces in inventory for same day shipping. Volt also offers custom molding if a fastener is not currently available in their catalog.ISO 9001 certified.

Their new home will give them the opportunity to provide better customer service, new products, technology and increased inventory. Volt has been looking forward to this move since they bought the 65,000 square foot building in 2007, but the economy forced them to stay at their old facility in Flippin until 2011. Over the last four years they have made small steps toward their move and then finally moved the entire inventory, machines and all departments over to Yellville in May, 2011. "This is a very exciting time for us and we have been waiting patiently and watching the economy for four years to be in our new home. We now have the room to grow and add product lines we did not have the square footage to add in our old facility," says Heidi Volltrauer COO of Volt Industrial Plastics, Inc.

ABOUT SMALLEY:

Smalley, for over 40 years, has manufactured retaining rings and wave springs using our unique coiling technology. Smalley has become established as the top manufacturer of spiral retaining rings and flat wire wave springs. Smalley is ISO 9001, ISO/TS 16949, AS9100 and ISO 14001 certified.

PRODUCTS:

Wave/Compression Springs: Smalley Wave Springs (Flat Wire Compression Springs) offer the unique advantage of space savings when used to replace coil springs. By reducing spring operating height, wave springs also produce a decrease in the spring cavity. With a smaller assembly size and less material used in the manufacturing process, a cost savings is realized. Wave springs operate as load bearing devices. They take up play and compensate for dimensional variations within assemblies. A virtually unlimited range of forces can be produced whereby loads build either gradually or abruptly to reach a predetermined working height. This establishes a precise spring rate in which load is proportional to deflection.

Spirolox® Retaining Rings: Spirolox Retaining Rings, available exclusively from Smalley, have No Ears To Interfere® with the mating components in the assembly. Spiral rings offer a 360° retaining surface, require no special tooling for removal and are interchangeable with ordinary snap ring grooves.

Constant Section Rings: Constant Section Rings are often specified for heavy duty or impact loading applications. Smalley offers eight series of rings from stock in over 1,000 sizes.

Laminar Sealing Rings: A Smalley Laminar Sealing Ring is a metallic labyrinth seal consisting of multiple rings in a groove. This arrangement of the rings and the specific orientation of the rings are dictated by the application and the severity of the environment.

MANUFACTURING PROCESS:

Smalley offers an exclusive Circular-Grain® Process. This process is not a stamping, but rather a continuous coil that is made from edge-wound, pre-hardened, spring-tempered flat wire. The flat wire has a grain structure that is linear, providing exceptional strength and dimensional stability. Smalley's unique manufacturing process reduces scrap allowing for the economical production of special alloy products including a large selection of stainless steel retaining rings and wave springs.
